It's the flow and mechanics of a class that are far more important. Being able to use OGCD's in between casts, being able to finish casting before having to dodge, putting Requiescats full timer to good use. There's fluidity, pacing, and fun involved in that. Auto attack damage is just another number added to our total that the devs raise and lower against our will. Auto attacking during Holy Spirit means absolutely nothing when it's our "total dps" that the game is balanced around.
